WILD FAMILY NATURE CLUB
Without a sense of wonder, there can be no conservation. Children need the opportunity to experience the natural world on their own terms in order to develop empathy, curiosity and care for wildlife and habitat. Are you a parent? Join the WILD Family Nature Club program, and we’ll inspire you and your child to get outdoors and play in nature. Learn more at Canadianwildlifefederation.ca/education.

BECOME A PART OF THE WATCH
Marine animals now have even more Canadians watching over them with the advent of the Canadian Marine Animal Response Network’s The Watch program. Join hundreds of coastal Canadians who live alongside some of our most endangered species —animals that face many dangers in our oceans. Most marine animals in need of help are reported by members of the public, which is why we need you. Learn what to do if you come across a marine animal emergency by visiting marineanimalresponse.ca/index. php/the-watch.
